Staff Management

Ever had to look for a parent volunteer or assistant coach email address or phone number?  Add all that contact information -- name, email, phone number -- into Takedown Scoring and Stats and even send an email from within the app.  Add a title -- head coach, assistant coach, manager, trainer or parent -- and you have all program-related contact information in one place.

Equipment Management

End-of-season equipment return is an administrative headache.  Now for each wrestler track issue and return dates for up to eight different pieces of loaned equipment.  Whether it's headgear, shoes or a singlet, you'll know to whom it was issued and when, and the return date.  Even add your own detailed note to each item.  Make life easier at season's end.

Notes

Sometimes a coach just wants to jot down a note about a specific wrestler, match, opponent, event or an entire season.  Release 2.0 lets you keep those notes organized and in one place -- on your iPad!  Does your 132 pounder need to work on single leg defense?  Add a note.  Scouted your cross-town rival and noticed their 120 pounder has a mean ankle pick?  Add a note to that wrestler.  Was the Tri-Valley Annual Pinfest a fun, well-managed tournament (with a delicious coach hospitality room)?  Add a note to that event.  Forget about looking around for a notebook or scrap of paper -- all that valuable info is in one place and at your fingertips.

My Team

We've consolidated all non-scoring information into a single item: My Team.  With this simpler user interface, manage your schedule, event and roster in one place.  Also, we've implemented an "Opponent Team" feature for managing opposing teams and associated wrestlers.

Takedown Scoring and Stats Release 1.7

Release 1.7 is available for download on the App Store.  This release offers exciting new features for scorers, fans, coaches and athletes.

New Injury and Riding Time Clocks

Takedown now offers a full set of injury and riding time clocks for each wrestler.  These clocks, appearing on the Match Scoring page, can be hidden or viewed at the user's discretion by swiping the associated tab.  When a clock is tapped, the match scoring clock stops and an appropriate notation appears in the scoring matrix.  The clocks are cumulative (except for recovery) and user adjustable.  When a clock approaches its maximum allowable value, a visual cue appears on-screen.  Here's an example of the new clocks in action:

Takedown Injury Clocks

For college, each wrestler has a riding time clock and riding time advantage is automatically calculated and displayed.  Riding time advantage is noted at the end of each period:

College Clocks with Riding Time

Enhanced Digital Scoreboard

Takedown's digital scoreboard got a makeover!  The presentation is easier to read at a distance, a change many officials will find helpful:

 Also, when an injury is scored, the associated clock displays on the scoreboard.  The normal scoreboard presentation reappears when the injury event concludes:

In-Depth Performance Stats for each Wrestler

Takedown's new Wrestler Profile report collects existing stats into a single page presentation of wrestler performance.  In addition, new stats allow a coach to answer the question:  "what's the chance of this wrestler getting a Takedown?"
